In times when things get tougher!

We don’t own our time; we never even know when we’ll last.  Sometimes we’re overthinking of what today and tomorrow should be for us and people dear to us that impair them a bit in a while. But attaching importance to each and every little event together keeps it ceaseless.

Most people have spent one Saturday ordinarily, but sure it wasn’t like any other ordinary Saturday for me, so much excitement had been put together, sharing hopes and aspirations, chatting inside the coffeeshop in a cold-rainy afternoon, watching creepy movie, capturing pictures and laughing our heart out until this uncheerful moment had landed. He’ll be leaving and won’t be seeing each other for a while, AGAIN.

We're like siblings:))

Never new to me, never new to the system, but felt like it was, AGAIN.

This time, it reached deeper degree of distance, lesser days together than how it was before. It’s quite hard but when someone is worth it you don’t mind it. Afterall no successful relationship went overnight and easy, everyone endures the pain and must survive the circumstances of being in such state, that’s why we need to be brave enough to fight for it.

I have been a recipient of what I think “LDR(distance connection)”, not that far but far enough not to see in every moment I want to. Technologies though helped me ceased it, wasn’t enough.  Yet surprised to have survived and surpassed those days filled with emptiness.

  As long as I know he's there fighting for us, we can make it go further and distance will be nothing but a loser for failing on breaking two people apart. 

A guy like him honestly does not come around very often. He is sensitive, understanding, independent, he has such a good, kind heart – worthy to be written.

"In times when things get tougher, hold on to the slimmest chance and strongest faith - it might work"

I didn't mean to be over-dramatic/romantic:(

Write it while it’s fresh!

Would you mind if I’ll get a little over-romantic? hahah. Don’t wanna miss the feeling.

January 4, 2013,  Friday. Scheduled to be my last date in January with someone very special who doesn’t want to be named Allan:) before leaving the city early next day.  Before that, the day ran inside the workplace uneasily- been feeling constipated, anxious, mixed emotions in short for undoubtedly no particular reason or maybe because I know this will be the endth day of something special for this month and its next.

Hmm, time reached its schedule - phone rang, missed calls, it’s not new but felt like it was. I was fetched and later on I got myself back. Thank God. Spent the night watching Filipino comedy movie which helped ease out our night forgetting all those worries behind. 

At HBC

Then had our dinner at Hog’s Breath Café, took some photos for my blog, and kill the time talking. Planned to be in ktv but because it’s Friday and it’s quite late, all ktvs’ were full. We went home, have some coffee, talked, and watched Korean film.

It was never an anniversary, never the first goodbye, never the new year – it’s just the feeling. The same old feeling I felt years back, the same old brand new feeling to the same old person.  I shared this because I want to be reminded of this crazy little puppy love-like teenage sparkled sensation of me. Hahah. That in spite of this year’s upcoming impediments, once and early this year our relationship have gone this point and beyond. This was never new, but I’ve found its merit to be documented.

I hope you’ve found relevance on this write-up. Maybe time had never been too harsh on us, in spite of being soo away for quite a while now, we have never bump into a very serious crap which might lead us to some broken pieces. It’s indeed a Blessing:)

And so I called it a date to be always remembered.

It Doesn't Have To Be Expensive

While browsing my old files on the computer, I paused and played a wmv which I made 6 months ago. Then I remember it’s my present to a very special friend on his 25^th birthday. In fact, I uploaded it in his facebook on the same month. Funny for I have only invested an effort yet received great response. 

A realization which gets my interest that an individual’s importance never depend on how much or how pricey materials you can give to a person rather how deep and sincere you are in your intentions.

You don’t need to impress yourself by giving off fancy presents to your loveones, atleast not all the time. Not every monthsary, whew! That sounds costly but if you can afford, all the best. I’m not familiar on how it is being celebrated, truly.

Then I reckon, sometimes a very simple good morning greetings and good nights appear so extraordinary, how possible! 

Cooking someone’s favorite on a special day creates sparks and happiness.

A card with all those wishes and wisdom truthfully written generates genuine smile and laughter with a big heart.

Spending a day chatting makes a day complete.

Be greeted and be remembered is indeed gratifying.

Occasionally your presence is already a gift.

Such a huge credit to an effortless amount. 

 I’m not saying that giving off pricey things is a curse, it never is, not even prohibited but do not make it a habit either.  You may even come up with some cliché ideas like “It’s the Thought that Counts”, or perhaps just base it on its intrinsic nature like what’s really the thing they need at this moment. The value of presents whether a material or in a non-material forms, expensive or inexpensive best observed during saddest and downiest days or when they less expected it.

Let me share you the video.
